After the completion of [[Farewell, My Love...]], [[Catalina]] gives Carl a deed to the old [[Xoomer]] [[Doherty Garage|garage]] in [[Doherty]], [[San Fierro]]. The Truth calls, stating that the weed is finally ready, and asks Carl to come see him. Carl meets the Truth at his farm, and prepares to leave in the Truth's [[Mothership]] when the two hear a [[Police Maverick|police helicopter]] outside. The Truth panics, realizing that [[Frank Tenpenny|Tenpenny]] set them up and that they must destroy the weed; he takes two [[Flamethrower|flamethrowers]], gives one to Carl, and the two torch the farm, with Carl doing most of the work. When they finish, the Truth gives Carl a [[Rocket Launcher|rocket launcher]], which he uses to destroy the helicopter, since they cannot escape it. Carl and the Truth get into the [[Camper#The Mothership|Mothership]] and drive to the [[Doherty Garage|garage]] in [[Doherty]], [[San Fierro]]. After getting there, they realize it is in need of repair, much to Carl's annoyance.

* It can be rather hard to shoot down the helicopter with the RPG. Wait until The Truth drives the "Mothership" to the exit and stop there. Then finish the helicopter there. A good way is to try and stand directly under it and fire it straight up. This will cause massive harm to the player due to the splash damage (Bring body armor) but will definitely destroy the helicopter.

*The mission's name (and the mission unlocked by it) are references to the Scott McKenzie song ''San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)''.

*This mission tends to crash after the beginning cutscene on the PC version of the game. It usually only happens if the game is running on the operating system [[wp:Windows Vista|Windows Vista]], for an unknown reason. This is possibly because the Windows Vista OS was released a few years after GTA SA was released on PC.

*While burning the weed, the player may notice the screen tilting slightly to both sides, and Carl complains that he feels like he's going to black out. Later, while driving to the garage, Carl's driving is slightly impaired, while he describes seeing patterns everywhere; these are both aftereffects of the burning weed. However, if driving slowly or bumping into many cars, a "buzz kill" occurs, stopping the effects of the Mary.
